This 30ml glass bottle of Colorverse Cat shimmering blue ink is part of the Colorverse Glistening collection.

Colorverse inks are made in South Korea.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens. We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging. You will also want to be diligent about cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.

Lovely color, clogged nib

I got this as a random sample. I love any blue ink and have to admit this is a beautiful color with fabulous shimmer. However, I couldn’t even finish my third sentence before it clogged my nib. Had to clean it out of my pen. So grateful for samples!

Pleasant surprise

I purchased an empty Colorverse bottle (to hold multiple same-shade examples from another ink brand), and I received Cat. There was enough ink remaining inside for a full dip/swab test AND a pen fill! What an unexpected surprise. The color is a saturated, bold navy with barely-there rose shading and a serious gleam, which you can really see if you hold the page at an angle. Cat reminds me of Private Reserve Electric DC Blue. I am definitely going to order a bottle when it comes back in stock.

What a bold blue

Been using this in a twsbi 580 stub. It's very well behaved and just a little wetter than than I was expecting.

Beautiful

Gorgeous blue with shimmer as intense as nail polish. Be sure to use a wet flowing pen because of the shimmer, but no trouble with the ink.

Thin suspension.

I love the colors and consistency of Colorverse glistening inks but find the stuff that makes it glisten takes no time to fall out of suspension and into the bottom of the bottle. To keep the glistening effect you have to be very vigilant in frequently mixing the ink by shaking or tumbling the bottle.

Frequently Asked Questions

Which pens can accept this ink? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Any of these fountain pens will work with bottled ink. Typically, as long as the pen can be filled with a converter, has a built-in filling mechanism like a piston, or can be eyedropper-filled, it can accept bottled ink. You can also refill an empty ink cartridge from bottled ink using an ink syringe.

Is shimmering ink safe to use in fountain pens? 8EDA1617-F73A-4DAF-8245-6D2BF4ABEB7B

Yes! Shimmering ink (a fountain pen ink that has small particles of glitter mixed in) is a great way to add some flare to your writing. We have found that a larger nib will showcase more shimmering particles while writing, but you can use any nib size with shimmering ink. While it is safe to use in fountain pens, it may require a little extra maintenance.

Due to the amount of particulate in this ink used to achieve the sparking look, you may experience restricted ink flow in some of your pens, especially with finer nibs.

We recommend shaking the ink thoroughly before filling, and gently rolling the pen in your hands often to keep the shimmer effect consistent. This will also help prevent clogging.

You will also want to be diligent about regularly cleaning and maintaining your pen when using this ink.
